2 Answers
Highlander 2700 weighs approximately 1850 kilograms and can carry a load of about 700 kilograms, which is approximately 1400 pounds, and can accommodate up to 12 people. The body dimensions of this model are 4795mm in length, 1910mm in width, and 1760mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2790mm. The Highlander is equipped with a 3.5-liter V6 engine that delivers up to 201 kilowatts of power, paired with a stepped 5-speed automatic transmission with manual mode, providing smooth acceleration, excellent fuel economy, and a delightful driving experience. Additionally, the high-rigidity monocoque chassis, combined with the four-wheel-drive system, newly developed suspension system, and 19-inch large-diameter wheels, ensures outstanding handling, ride comfort, and off-road performance.
I think the weight of the Highlander 2700 is around 1,900 kilograms, equivalent to 1.9 tons. I often encountered this model when helping with car repairs at the dealership. The weight affects handling and fuel consumption. In the city, with frequent stops and starts, the fuel consumption tends to be higher, staying around 12 liters per 100 kilometers, but it’s more stable and fuel-efficient on the highway. The weight also makes the suspension prone to wear, especially in older cars. When changing tires, it’s important to check if the tire pressure meets the standard, otherwise, it increases the risk of a blowout. Regular maintenance of the rims and shock absorbers is crucial to extend their lifespan. There are slight variations across different model years, but post-2009 models generally fall within this range, and with added safety features, the weight might approach 2,000 kilograms. Overall, this weight is quite suitable for family safety, but attention to maintenance details is necessary.
